Too low to lift car

You can drive on 2x4s to get on a normal lift.

Or go to any nissan dealer with lo profile racks--I know every dealer that has a gtr tech has them.

I think the OP want to find a alignment rack. There are two types one that you have a small ramp or the one that you just drive onto that is level with the ground. Most of the nissan dealerships are going to the latter due to the lower vehicles. If you go to a shop that you have to drive up on about the only way it can be done with a lowered vehicle is to take the front bumper off to get the clearance. Shops will not use lumber to make the grade easier due to liability issues. I found this out the hard way but since I take the the bumper off and on so much I just did it in the parking lot in about 5min and put it back on after it came off the rack and yes I watched it going on and off and every step of the way.
